5) Zoey, Two and a Half Men

I didn't include Lana since she was only on there for like 7 eps and they were able to see she was a bad addition early on

Why is Jefferson a bad character additon? I like the ones with him better than Steve.

Why do you say that? I think Jefferson and Al seemed to be a better fit. I always got that "I'm better than you" attitude from Steve.

That's what made their interaction better, Steve felt he was better than Al and made fun of his life and al did the same to him

jefferson ended up growing on me but I still prefer steve because he was the opposite of AL which was geeky
